Finding? How are you going to find it? Since you’re arguing to never change what you’re doing in practice the very first attempt at practice must be the thing you always repeat right?

Finding the optimal way of doing something involves getting it wrong before you get it right. We all know this. What I was talking about was not greenhorn entry-level practice, but the practice of an expert who has already figured that much out. Obviously, you have to learn the right way to do something before you can do it the right way.
Congratulations that was the point.

If you were looking for consistency, that is by definition you looking for the same result, which is not covered in the definition of insanity.

Not necessarily. If you are learning a skill that requires accuracy (e.g. darts), you will sdo the same thing ovre and over. In the beginning the result will be that you will hardly be able to hit the board at all, and after a ton of practice the result will be that you will hit where you want to hit.
So by doing the same thing over and over again you will get a different result.

If your results are different, then by definition what you did was not exactly the same.

Ok, let’s try this a different way:
“I’m gonna get a drink.” - “I’m gonna do the same.”
Is the second person going to immitate every single motion of the first person?
Or will the second person just also get a drink, maybe not even the same drink?

I do feel like that sometimes, so completely understandable.
